Dr. Garcia-Nevarez's recent research studies have examined the attitudes of pre-service teachers toward teaching as a career and working with culturally and linguistically diverse students. Specifically, she has studied the impact of early field experiences on prospective teachers' career goal orientations, the relationship between school classification (Title I, non-Title I) and participant outcomes, and the relationship between participants' facility in a second language and their response to early field experiences. Previous research studies have focused on the attitudes and perceptions that foreign-trained teachers and bilingual education teachers have towards their education training and the promising prospects these teachers have in the United States.
